ThePoint Employee ShoutOut
por ThePoint
Employee recognition on SharePoint - instant shoutouts, custom types, reactions, six layouts.
ThePoint Employee Shoutout brings peer-to-peer recognition directly onto your SharePoint intranet. Any employee can post a shoutout for a colleague in seconds — pick the person from your directory, choose a recognition type, write a short message — and it appears instantly on the page for everyone to see.
Built for internal comms teams, HR teams, and site owners who want a culture of recognition to be visible where people already work: the intranet home page, department sites, and team hubs. No separate recognition platform, no per-user subscriptions, no data leaving your tenant.
Key features
- Six display layouts — scrolling ticker, card grid, rotating card, full-width banner, vertical feed with likes, and a compact sidebar list, so it fits any page zone from hero to one-third column.
- Customisable recognition types — emoji, colours, and names managed in a SharePoint list by your comms team.
- Company Goal or Company Value tags — optionally let people link each shoutout to one of your organisation's goals or values, with the choices defined by the page owner in the web part settings.
- Reactions — one like per person per shoutout, toggled instantly.
- Live preview — the shoutout card renders as the author types.
- Theme aware — inherits your site's colours and fonts automatically.
- Zero-setup storage — shoutouts, types, and reactions live in SharePoint lists created automatically in your own tenant the first time a site owner loads the page. Point several sites at one list to share recognition across your intranet.
Privacy and permissions
This package contains a single SharePoint Framework (SPFx) web part. It uses only the SharePoint REST API in the signed-in user's context — no Microsoft Graph permissions, no external services, and all data stays in your SharePoint tenant.
Licensing
A paid licence key is required for full functionality. The app runs in trial mode without a licence key; a trial banner appears above the web part and is removed once a valid key, purchased from ThePoint, is entered. Learn more at the-point.uk or contact us for a licence or support.
